Oude Werf Hotel

As the oldest running hotel in South Africa, the Oude Werf Hotel has a history that spans back over three centuries, surviving multiple fires and evolving into the luxury hotel that you see before you today, dedicated to green hospitality and giving back to the community. Established in 1686 as a modest thatch-roofed church at the request of Dutch governor Simon van der Stel, the namesake of Stellenbosch. Originally named d’Ouwe Werf or ‘the old yard’. In 2007 the hotel was bought by the Petousis family and developed into what it is today, a premier Stellenbosch landmark.
